“Universal basic income is a regular cash payment, equal and unconditional,
sent to every person as a floor beneath them. Joe Biden’s former commerce
secretary Gina Raimondo has decided that UBI in response to AI is the thing to
fear most. At the Reagan National Economic Forum she said: "I personally think
it's like the end of America."
She is now heading up a newly-launched extremely well-funded organization to
make sure the country reaches for anything but a basic income in response to
AI. It's called RAISE US, and the money behind it comes largely from the
companies building the disruption it exists to manage. Let me walk you through
what this new org is, what it quietly concedes, and what it's really for.”
